| We were served a great mix (cookie, soup, tapas, chocolate, bisquit, icecream, pasta) of great foodand an interesting history lesson from an enthusiastic guide. First tasting was a large cookie, would have saved it for last if we had the chance.
We were happily surprised to get a walk on the highline, a place we had asked around for but nobody seemed to know where it was. |

A delightful introduction to a NY neighbourhood

| As visitors from Australia we thoroughly enjoyed the food tour of Chelsea Market and surrounds. Kurt was a great guide who made every effort to make it an enjoyable experience for everyone in the group. We wish we had done the tour a little earlier in our stay in New York for the tips on where to eat. |

| Kurt, our guide was fantastic. His knowledge of the tour stops was quite impressive, even to food and wine snobs like ourselves. The 3-hour excursion could have become tiresome and dull, given the amount of info and ground to cover, but Kurt's enthusiasm for NY's food scene and his comedic banter were irresistible. He kept us excited and entertained the whole time. Highly recommend! So glad we did this tour. |

| The food is ample and wonderful! Our guide was so knowledgeable about food, I felt completely at ease in his care. A wonderful memory that I would repeat in a second, and intend to. |

| The chelsea market is nice and interesting, but the guide did not give us a lot of information. The food was good, but I could have bought it on my own. I fond the tour bowring, I did not learn much. The main part was on the market itselve, I would have prefered a longer walk througt the meetpacking district and more history. The guide talked more about himself, that he loves his job, what he has eaten, which cook he met, who cares??? |

| The experience my friends and I had during the Chelsea/Meatpacking food tour went above and beyond our expectations. Not only were we captivated by the delicious food we sampled but were surprised by the journey through the history of the Chelsea Marketplace and the Meatpacking District. I would highly recommend this tour for couples, friends, and families interested in learning about the rich history of this NYC neighborhood. |

| We were in NYC for the weekend with a group of 6 friends. The tour was absolutely wonderful. Plenty of awesome food with interesting historical facts from our fabulous guide Bob. Would highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to learn more about the meat packing district, enjoys a little history and of course loves food. |

| This is our 2nd food tour--we did the Greenwich Village last year--and we thoroughly enjoyed both. I worried that going on 2 would be too much of the same thing, but they were quite different. Our adult daughter who lives in the area was with us and enjoyed them also. Curt was our guide this year and he was superb (and a hoot!). |
